Avoid excess range in results from i386 exp, hypot, pow functions (bug 18980).
i386 exp, hypot and pow functions can return overflowing and underflowing values with excess range and precision; ; Wilco Dijkstra's patches to make isfinite etc. expand inline cause this pre-existing issue to result in test failures. This patch fixes those functions to avoid excess range and precision in their return values. Appropriate macros are added for the repeated code sequences; in future I'll add more such macros and refactor existing code forcing underflow (with or without also eliminating excess range and precision from the return value) to use such macros. Tested for x86. If, after this patch, you still see x86 libm test failures with excess range or precision, please file bugs in Bugzilla.
